making margin
I haven’t done a lot of writing lately
And I love writing
Someone asked me if I was still doing spoken word
I paused, nah, it’s been awhile
Another asked if I still wrote poetry
Yeah, but’s it’s been awhile
It’s hard to keep the things we love when life gives little margin
But I think the answer is to not overcomplicate it
The answer is, sometimes we do, sometimes we don’t
Sometimes we can make margin and sometimes we’re out
Life is less of a checklist and more of a moving forward in the best we have to offer
